The Maine Black Bears had a chance to rub elbows with a celebrity, and supporter of Hockey East's Skating Strides Against Cancer.

Re: This Week in Hockey East

I'm almost afraid to ask but what happened to Tara Watchorn? Anybody?

She is unfortunately still dealing with a concussion. Bad luck for BU with the injuries. Coming into the season it seemed like the D corps would be the major strength for the team with 7 very capable defensemen. But two injuries later (Caroline Campbell the other) and BU was forced to convert a F back to D. And of course the Poulin injury.

I've been impressed with how the team has played without two of their best players but don't know if they'll be able to hold up with the top teams. Wisco and BC the next two weekends should be interesting.

Thanks....I'm used to seeing her name in the boxscores and noticed that she wasn't even on the team statistics page. Too bad, nasty things those head injuries; hopefully she'll recover soon. The team has done well with all those injuries; credit to the captain and crew.

Well, Maine just laid a pasting on BC. Gonna have to go to a medium or something if I'm to have any chance of picking correctly.

Re: This Week in Hockey East - Oct 28/29 picks

Wow.......Maine destroys #4 BC 5-2 at their rink. Maine may be inconsistent, but they are definitely improved. Seems like they actually have a decent coach now.
